Volume 1, Chapter 34: You Are Not in a Rush, but I Am
Shu Xingruo said, "Xingzhi Hall belongs to my grandfather."
Yao Yun smiled. "So you are the granddaughter of Mr. Shu. No wonder your company is called Xingzhi Biotechnology. Years ago, it was the old gentleman who healed my leg."
Shu Xingruo was surprised. "What a coincidence."
Yao Yun continued, "Indeed. Back then, I was working at a construction site after the college entrance exams to earn my tuition, and I broke my leg. Every hospital said I would be crippled. I really wanted to die, and my mother cried every day at home. Later, she heard that Xingzhi Hall was excellent at treating injuries, so she took me there. Mr. Shu set my bones and prescribed five doses of medicine. He even comforted me, telling me not to give up and that I would surely recover. True enough, within a month..."
Lin Qing had previously thought that while Ling Annan had a reputation for being a playboy, he was at least consistent and faithful when it came to Lu Xiao.
Hydra soldiers clad in heavy bulletproof armor, along with those massive energy tanks, began to advance slowly toward the city.
Immediately after, two slender hands reached out from behind, gently caressing Gu Xing’s shoulders before sliding down to his chest, touching him with the tenderness of a lover.
The zombie that emerged was a creature of immense demonic nature; it seemed to have harbored deep resentment before death. It leaped over the ring of fire, and although the yin energy on its body was stripped away, its powerful demonic essence drove it to slaughter. It would only grow more formidable and would not flee until everyone in the vicinity was dead.
As the words fell, my five senses vanished completely. Amidst the hazy confusion, a faint light appeared before my eyes.
Imagine an army of my own subordinates, all superhumans with physical capabilities enhanced several times over, equipped with Iron Man-style power armor—such a force would be nothing short of a legion of supermen.
Just as Yun Qi lamented his recklessness for causing him to fall out of that marvelous state, a force of an entirely different nature surged from the deep earth.
With this move, John had solved the medical issues in public, addressed the challenges of expensive and inaccessible healthcare for the populace, and even reduced the financial burden.
He attempted to communicate with these Westerners, only to discover that although they knew there was profit to be made here, their subconscious mind always perceived this as a very strange land.
She looked focused. Mu Li felt that she was about to push his presence away again, so he stopped immediately and turned to pull her into an embrace.
A shallow sword mark remained on her fingernail, and Li Anna was startled. This strike of hers could slice through refined steel as if it were tofu, yet the nail, clearly devoid of any elemental energy protection and consisting of pure flesh, had resisted her blade.
Most of the guests who had originally come for the Pangu True Armor could no longer restrain themselves and began to bid, hoping to be the first to secure this rarely seen weapon.
Capital University invited him to give a speech; it was nothing major, but another lecture was more important—the one being held at the Capital Medical University.
Noon arrived, and An Ruo was called out by Lu Ling. An Ruo offered Tang Wei an apologetic smile.
"Drink it, and you'll feel better." Xu Nanqin looked at me tenderly, his eyes like deep pools, drowning me within them. I gritted my teeth, pinched my nose, and with a heroic air, gulped the black, murky liquid down into my stomach.
Based on her understanding of Ye Wei, if Ye Wei had agreed to end their friendship, she would simply accept it without saying much more.
A reclamation legion, and not even from the same world—the God of Magic had forcibly brought them together to live. Their mission was merely to hold the city, and the God of Magic used divine arts to teach the believers how to defend it.
Mo Bai opened his eyes only to find that the hammer had actually smashed the head of the man who had been pinning him down. At this moment, Luo Yeqi had dropped the hammer and was clutching the web of his hand.
"I understand. Also, um... thank you for helping Brother Mo..." Su Qingge did not pull away as he ruffled her soft hair.
"You don't want the resource territory? The Earth Clan has vast holdings; what will they use to develop if they don't have resource territory? Without it, for the Earth Clan to dream of being on equal footing with the Four Great Clans is pure delusion." Xiu Jue gave a cold hum and said with a laugh.
That was why I followed the King of Ten Thousand's speculation, describing something that didn't exist as if it were a premeditated plot, just to confuse him further. I wanted to stall for time as much as possible, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
Du Yifei had left, and I had to prepare for class. Although I am very busy now, I still have to complete my studies, so I ensure I attend classes every day and dare not slack off.
"Ha, haha..." Su Jun remained lost in his fantasies, completely oblivious to the anger in the outside world.
He believed that the Qinghong Sword should be kept by a prominent figure like himself. How could Yang Yan, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, be worthy of possessing such a divine weapon?
"A true gentleman does not fight a leopardess," and "When the enemy advances, we retreat." Mu Bin was feeling a bit guilty and worried that it might suddenly strike, so he held his sword in one hand and a torch in the other, slowly backing away.
Ye Zhen gave the Holy Venerable a kick, and the latter scurried over to open the door. "It's nothing, just a signal issue. By the way, we are leaving tomorrow. There are rooms here; you can come over now." If she came tomorrow, everyone would have to wait, so coming tonight was for the best.
That day, he found a place in the Green Ridge Mountains that he was quite satisfied with. With clear, emerald waters, blooming flowers, and the songs of birds, it was indeed a fine spot, so he decided to cultivate there for a few more days before returning.
Shi Xiaofeng suddenly struck out, landing a light slap across the face that sent the two demons crashing into two desks; half of their faces swelled up instantly. Even though there was still some distance between them, Shi Xiaofeng’s slap arrived as soon as it was launched, leaving the two demons with no time to react.
I understood now; this Old Man Zou was the head of the underworld's public security bureau, tasked specifically with punishing those in the martial world who violated the law.
Qi Longhai stared blankly, watching the 'Qi Longhai' opposite him with terror and disbelief. The only person who looked exactly like him was his younger brother, Qi Longsong.
